Dystopia has grown on me a little bit. I still don't like Bullet to the Brain and The Emperor.. fucking horrible lyrics.
Had they not been on the album it would've been pretty solid.

That reads like a cross between a statement captives of terrorists make and the essay we always used to have to write in primary school entitled "What I Did On My Summer Holiday"

I still can't stand the constant guitar wankery. I know Mustaine wants his songs to consist of 50 % solo, but it's just too much for me. It ruins otherwise good songs.

What bothers me the most with modern Megadeth is Dave's voice.. and I never had a problem with it before (pre-Thirteen).

You cut out the guitar bullshit and come up with even a half decent hook over that chorus riff and you may have the best song they've done in 16 years. Instead I get "Random kid at Guitar Center learned to sweep pick and thinks you need to hear it over and over and over" solo #12A.

Exactly this, it ruins the flow of.. everything with the damn soloing everywhere. I like a good solo as much as the next dude, but if you are gonna write solo's that lasts as long as Kiko makes them, they better be ridiculously good. I mean TOS good, or else it just too much wanking off.

That usually bothers me too. I hated UA because of that. But I didn't mind it on this album. In fact, I kind of enjoyed it.
I wished that Conquer or Die would be longer. The acoustic intro is awesome.

Anyone else think Dave Ellefson will be gone from the band soon, every interview recently Mustaine is complaining about him, just read one where he blamed Ellefson for Drover and Broderick leaving. Wouldn't be surprised if he's gone by the end of the year.

So what is Dystopia like? I haven't heard it yet. Pretty decent. Much better than anything that's been released by Dave since The System Has Failed. Try not to pay too much attention to the lyrics as he's gotten a bit more conspiracy-ey as he gets older. Well worth paying under £5/$8 for a copy.

Wouldn't be surprised if he's gone by the end of the year. It's been both breaking my heart and just pissing me off. David is sincerely a really nice guy, and I'd hate to see Megadeth be even MORE the Dave show like it was from 2004 to 2010 again. But then again, David is probably better off.

Agreed, David shouldn't take all that crap. He's the only on in that band I care for

He is constantly running his mouth. Just shut up and keep some stuff private within the band

what a weird guy. publicity? maybe.
but to his defense, I don2t think there is anything unfair to Ellefson in that comment. He says he is a great person. Very loveable, he adds.
That doesn't sound like he is being a dick to jr.
Musically, it is pretty normal that he has a closer relation with Kiko, which I think is great. He probably didn't have a that good communication with Chris before.

Yeah agreed, he is not really being that mean. But he is still talking way much in the media about his band members
